Order entered December 1, 2016
In The
Court of Appeals
Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
No. 05-16-01055-CV
IN THE INTEREST OF A.S., A CHILD
On Appeal from the 304th Judicial District Court
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 15-00707-W
ORDER
Pursuant to our October 17, 2016 order, the trial court conducted a hearing to determine
whether appellant desired to prosecute this appeal and, if he did, whether he was entitled to
appointed counsel. The trial court found appellant desires to prosecute the appeal and appointed
Frank Adler as appellant’s counsel. Accordingly, we DIRECT the Clerk of the Court to
designate Frank Adler as counsel for appellant.
As the appellate record has been filed, we ORDER appellant to file his brief no later than
December 21, 2016. Because this is an appeal from an order terminating appellant’s parental
rights, we caution appellant no extensions may be granted absent exigent circumstances.
